Valais. Delicious wines by the Rhone River
Sometimes the sun turns Valais into a Mediterranean country. This is one of the reasons why there are so many wonderful specialties produced here.
None of the other 22 cantons can boast of such culinary richness as Valais. The reason for this is its special microclimate and various types of soil. The canton combines territories of arid Mediterranean climate and Alpine grounds. No wonder why the highest European vineyard (1150 meters above the sea level) is located here, in Visperterminen.

For those wanting to experience Italy without the crowds and the sometimes unbearable summer heat, a tour of the north has plenty that appeals. Let’s take a look at some must-see highlights.

Like all the southerners, Portuguese people are gourmands. And they can cook well. Mind that they pay attention not only to the dishes, but also to the place and the time of their meals. And, of course, the company.
Portuguese cuisine differs from any European cuisine, including Spanish one. For instance, Spanish and French restaurants offer a variety of snacks and salads whereas the Portuguese prefer to start their meals with the first course. To be exact, there are only two real salads in Portugal – vegetable and “green” (prepared of tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, onion and carrot, all with olive oil), sometimes spices are added.

I have been back in Arizona for only a few days and my mind keeps going back to the orphanage in Costa Rica. I sit down again and start looking at the pictures for the umpteenth time and my eyes get watery and then I laugh and and then I get up and wipe my eyes again. There are so many memories and did I do enough or is there still something else I can do.

To be honest with you, before going to Ceara, Brazil, my husband and I did not know what to expect there. We were conscious that it could be both, unbelievably good or bad. To our surprise, what we discovered for ourselves was a very pleasant weather, lots of sun, and superb beaches. All of the above make Ceara one of the main tourist destinations of Northeast in Brazil. It is located right below the line of the Equator, and has 573 km of coast along the Atlantic Ocean. The sea breeze softens the temperature, making the air to be about between 23C at night and 30C during the day all year around, and has a typical tropical climate.

When you hear the word “Greece” what kind of associations does it rise? I think that these associations are similar with mine. The infinite land with olive groves; the country washed by three seas; the country with magnificent architecture and rich cultural heritage; the country that gave the birth of the most famous philosophers; and of course the country that formed the basis of modern European civilization when the Ancient Greece myths had appeared.

Now that I’ve got your attention, first I would like to say that there is no doubt in my mind that Disney World is geared towards kids. What I mean by my title (Disney World is not for Kids) is that there are many “grown up” things to do there as well. As you may well already know, Disney World (located in Orlando, FL) is much more than just a theme park with Mickey Mouse! It consists of:
- 4 major theme parks
- 2 water parks
- Up to 30 world class resorts and hotels
- A speedway
- Sport complex
- Downtown Area with shops, restaurants, and clubs
- and much more…
